No Bible, since the Bible became available as a single book, was printed without the Deuterocanon. Deuterocanon is not "apocrypha"; let's not switch topics. Aquinas uses a deuterocanonical book (Sirach 15:14), for example, to show that the Holy Scripture teaches free will: Article 1. Whether man has free-will?. So, no, I am not "just making assertions". That one can find much said also against the Deuterocanon no one has disputed.
"full conversion occurs before death" certainly does not appear to be part of that catechism of yours
Is speaks of an effective conversion prompted by good works does it not? Dead people don't do works.
There ya go.
There are NO saints in Heaven; helping Jesus.
Jesus is
He needs no assistance from Dead people.
